RUSLAN & LYUDMILA TRAILER
BETTER THAN A FAIRY TALE
Straight from Russia comes a trailer for their new epic animated adventure RUSLAN AND LYUDMILA: BETTER THAN A FAIRY TALE which is out August 24th! Lyudmila is beautiful and
courageous, as befits the daughter of a Grand Duke. Ruslan is her kind and resourceful lover. But on the eve of the wedding, Lyudmila is captured by sorcerer Chernomor, who has already collected a whole collection of fairy princesses. Chernomor clearly does not fit Lyudmila's taste, and she will not let herself be offended. And who will rescue her, Pushkin?! However, even without the author of the tale, Ruslan found rivals for her hand and half a kingdom in addition. Now he is waiting for a chase through magical lands, meeting the last talking bear, a collision with a giant and other fabulous creatures, not to mention the battle with Chernomor itself on earth and in heaven.
